In the space of less than 15 minutes, Gustavo Scarpa covers everything from Led Zeppelin, Steve Jobs, his faith and the TV show Friends. Not to mention his start to life at Nottingham Forest. And Rubik’s Cubes, of course.
He is a fascinating character. Someone who has quickly become popular among the dressing room and with supporters and who is keen to embrace life in a new country. He is determined to make an impression on the pitch, too.
The versatile midfielder has made a positive start to life at the City Ground since putting pen to paper as a free agent. And having arrived on Trentside already speaking very good English, he now finds himself - along with Renan Lodi, who has been at the club since the summer - drafted in to act as translator for fellow Brazilians Danilo and Felipe.
